I think this is the only acceptable entry (only it look so gay because it’s color pink and the font is garamond —which was the standard font I use every day at the law firm where I was working before. Okay, why am I even explaining?) that I posted on my friendster blog, the rest were a bunch of blahs!

I miss pops so I came up with this mixtape. OMG! I was fighting back my tears the whole time I was compiling all the songs here, but, yeah, I am actually not good at it so the inevitable happened, I broke down into tears. Meh.

Whoever you are reading this, maybe you had also lost a loved one, a dad or maybe a mom? I am sharing you this collection of songs that my dad used to sing and songs that reminds me of him. Maybe at some point, you'll be able to relate to this missing piece that I am feeling. I dunno, I just believe that after all, a daughter wouldn't forget a father's love, it is something I would carry with me for as long as I live.

I love my son, there’s no doubt about it and for as long as I can, I will give him whatever makes him happy.

But I just hate that whenever I lie down on our bed, I see it and as much as I want to just look somewhere else in the morning, I can’t help but stare at our ceiling and ask myself, why did I even said yes to you when you told me to put it there. Heh!

went to school to see the result of the entrance exam I took 2 weeks ago, remember this post?

immediately called mommy to tell her bout the good news

texted my closest friends and cousins and tweeted about it as well, OMG! I’M IN! GOING BACK TO SCHOOL THIS JUNE! YAY!

looked at these kids who seem so naive

also, i wondered, do I look that way 10 yrs. ago?

almost fell asleep during the orientation that lasted for 2 1/2 hrs.

made friends with a 16 year old girl

ate bacon sandwich and kwek-kwek at the school canteen, too lazy to go outside

I regret not bringing tutu with me, sew bored!

waited for another 1 1/2 hrs. for the interviewer

filled out too many forms, ah, it’s hard to use a pen again

the interviewer seemed to like me, yes, I saw it in her eyes, heh!

though at first she was like persuading me to pursue broadcasting. I’m sarreh, maam, but I am already decided, I am shifting to B.S. Psychology

went to the different departments in school because I have too many inquiries about this and that and whatevs

went to cousin’s house to fetch mommy and Carlo

Carlo gave me a kiss and congratulated me, I treated them to McDo

I’m just so tired, but so happy!

honestly, I have too many things in mind, but yeah, surely, I am taking a big step in my life and of course, Carlo’s life as well, but hey, this is all worth it! *pats myself on the back* Good job, self! :)

Remember when I talked about Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist? So, after watching the movie, I tweeted that I wish summady would gimme a mixtape, apparently, a friend replied immediately and promised to make me one. LOL, course I got excited like a litol kid. Heee, summady answered my simple wish! You see, it's easy to make me happeh. It was actually a month in the making but its worth the wait. My mixtape arrived today! :)

The playlist is so interesting. So hipster. Feels like I am the lead role in an indie film. Also, look at the album art, I know he took too much effort on it, I loved it! Thank you bb! :)

Hey, stranger, I am sharing some love to you. You can download this mixtape here. Happy listening! :)

Last night, Carlo and I watched Tangled (which of course was my choice) inside our little sanctuary. I had made this blanket tent by our bed, prepared chips and cookies, set up the laptop and turned off the light for a more cozy-feel. We pretended like we were somewhere far away from here while eyes were glued on the screen and our hands and mouths were busy digging in to some goodies. :)

I see a glimpse of Carlo's eyes, twinkling; his lips curved into a smile. For a seven year old who is so hooked with WWE, it was such a joy to see that he can stand watching this kind of movie with me. Now honing you to be that guy that the girls out there will love, hihi.

Tangled is so fun to watch, the story of Rapunzel given a new twist. Her prince charming, Flynn Rider is so masculine yet so adorable while Maximus, the horse who has a love and hate relationship with him has a personality that of a dog, loyal and dedicated to his master (the King). Pascal, the chameleon is so lovable, I wanna take him home! But, I would have to say, there were several scenes that were hilarious enough to make me and my son laugh so hard, like the one at Snuggly Duckling with the Pub Thugs, their performance was so cute, ah, it was so endearing! But two of my most favorite part were when Flynn accompanied Rapunzel to see the lanterns (which for 17 years she thought were stars) being flown in the air, it was so magical! And of course, every fairy tale must come to an end, the part when she was reunited with the King and the Queen after 18 long years was D'aww-est (yuh, I just made up that word (if you can even call it a "word")) moment in the movie. Of course, a fairly tale wouldn't be complete without its famous closing remarks, oh yes, you got it so right! ~And they lived happily ever after.~

Here are some screencaps and hooligans gifs for your health ^_^

Moments like this that I get to spend with my son is just so priceless --wouldn't trade it for anything in the world. The laughter I hear from him, the comfort I feel with his company, the appreciation I see from him for everything that I am doing for his welfare down to those Friday nights we get to spend watching wrestling and those times that I can tag him along to watch some princess' motion picture with me. I know one day, you will get to read the oh, so many posts I had made about/for you. And when you do, to please give mommy a warm hug and treat mommy to yet another movie date. I love you, Carlo!

Since mommy is in Manila, I get to spend more time in front of the television and by television, I mean channel 2's shows from My Princess to Mara Clara. Yesterday, I was so giddy to see that McDonald's has released (without a doubt) yet another adorable advertisement.

Screencaps for further dose of cuteness:

Later that night, I saw Nestle's latest ad. Okay, this I have to admit, I cried. Yep, I did! What made it more of a tearjerker is the theme song which is Apo's Pag-Ibig, though it could have been greater if they had used the original one, ugh! It's just so full of love, so ideal, so heartwarming and heartbreaking at the same time (yuh, go figure).

Yesterday's emotions were like that of these ads, at first I was like, yuh, today is just like no other steady day with Carlo that we can spend over a fast food meal; not until I received this message on facebook that sortov left me thinking of the shoulda, woulda, coulda's (to please read this for your enlightenment).

You've seen the later part on that Nestle commercial? Ha, who knows? I might get to spend my middle age-dying years with that one man I am destined to be with. LOL, this single mom is just so hopeful! Spreading love and positivity! ^_^

I was once asked by my cousin if I am already over you and I was left mum about it. They say, you can only tell that you are over someone when you just don’t give a fuck anymore on how he chose to live his life without you.

Last May, I opened your yahoo mail; you still have the same password huh. I know it’s absurd but I was just checking how you have been after everything that has happened, how lame, I know, argh! I know! Then I tried to access your newly made facebook account and voila, you’re also using the same password like the one I gave you for your mail. How idiot can you be?What a pleasant surprise to find out that your relationship status is engaged —darn it! Hrrr, this thing is even harder than I thought. I can not really put into writing how for the nth time… it broke my heart.

I know that I don’t love you anymore. I swear, I do not love you anymore, but after all these years, why can it still hurt so badly? Why do I still feel awful whenever I talk to people about you? Have I really not let go of you yet? —Oh, God, I guess so.

I was looking at old photos earlier and this in particular painted a smile on my face. Ha, Ive been always saying that time flies so fast, well especially when you’re a mom and you get to witness the different aspects of changes in your kid. You see, Carlo is such a big bb. Look at his THIGHS AND LEEGGGSSS! Gad, he’s so heavy! My mean brother used to tease him Jabba The Hut, course Carlo doesn’t care not until I showed him a picture of this creature only then he started yelling that I should kill it with fire! Uhm, of course he did not really say that. He just hated how he looked like on this candid shot beside a buddha figurine. It just looks so… what was that again? Yuh, awful, but whatever! I love you, love you, love you!

I've been blogging about stuff and people close to my heart and it's only now that summady has written something for me. I feel so elated knowing that amongst those who I had made friends with throughout the years, there's this one person who went out of her way to reassure me of what kind of a bond we have. Who would've thought that the acquaintance we had at that small space at Jay Anne's house in January 9, 1997 will be the start of our wonderful journey? Sure, we've been both through one helluva ride. We had stood the test of times, but hey, here we are, 14 years later, stronger, wiser and with straighter herrs. LOLWHUT?

I really can't think of any way on how to end this post that wouldn't sound so cliche but what the hell, I love you and always know that I will be here for you no matter what. Thank you for the friendship and yes, cheers to more fruitful, crazy, happy yearsss! Also, may the love that we deserve find its way to us. :) I will see you soon, Aby. Mwaaah!
